Spot the Difference

The UK is almost alone in Europe in honouring Kyoto pledges to cut greenhouse gases, a think-tank claims.Ten of 15 European Union signatories will miss the targets without urgent action, the Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) found.

Britain's institutions are infected with political correctness which is damaging society, according to a book published by a right wing think-tank.Civitas says political correctness has allowed the creation of "Muslim ghettos" which produce suicide bombers.

I see the story has been amended during the course of the day. The line “BBC home affairs correspondent Rory MacLean said the book's claims were unlikely to go unchallenged” has now vanished. Can’t have the BBC’s intentions displayed so blatantly.
